==== Alarms & Sleepers =====
Inspired partly on comments from and by old GAOTD: Hot Alarm Clock (http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/hot-alarm-clock2/ (http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/hot-alarm-clock2/))
* Alarm Clock of Justice 2.2.2
Quote: "The Alarm Clock of Justice is a computer alarm clock that can wake your computer from standby or hibernation to play a customized alarm. The alarm includes videos, websites, songs, movies, and any other file type. By waking up from standby and hibernation your PC does not have to be turned on all night--and neither do its cooling fans. Release 2.2.x has snooze, a new interface for profiles (formerly called "configurations"), customizable alarm timing, and a lot of other improvements from version 2.1."
REMARK:
- be careful... On some systems this program works like sheit. On others it works like a charm. On my Vista x86 it works really well - but that's mainly luck according to the writer of the program : )
- please don't post problems when it has the word(s): AVG // McAfee // WOT // Norton in it. THANK you :s

* Goodnight Timer
Quote: "Goodnight timer reduces the sound volume of your computer in a given amount of time and speed and then shuts down your computer. Features:
- Set shutdown time by timer or at a specific time
- Volume reduction - choose between a linear and an exponetial profile, set reduction start time and duration. Start and end volumes can be freely choosen.
- Restores your normal sound volume after next system start."
NOT tested by me, but by the same developer:
"Countdown Pro 2 is an NON-FREE but extremely flexible timer/reminder for your desktop. It comes with a screensaver that can be designed freely."

* Sleep moon Xpress
Quote: "Shut down or restart the system, put it into hibernation, stand-by or log off the user, run a specific file or sound an alarm"
"You can clap your hands, yell, howl or make whatever sound you like to trigger the action; or you can exploit the mobile technology and use the mobile phone to do all of these things, either by appealing to Bluetooth or connecting it to a wireless network."

* Smartsleep
Quote: "Shutdown, log off, reboot, hibernate, suspend, execute file, black screen, display message. Slow decrease of sound volume before shutdown. Timer with relative and absolute time. Powerful scheduling. Atomic clock synchronization. Display black screen while waiting for shutdown. Shutdown forcing - your PC will be shut down ALWAYS!
Confirmation window with custom time out, no accidents!"
* Sweet Dreams 1.21
Quote: "Set to reduce it progressively along a period of time"
